"I have been at City College part time for almost three years. Without the flexible class schedule, I wouldn’t be able to continue my studies alongside my full-time job. One more semester and I’ll have my general education requirements fulfilled in order to transfer to San Francisco State. I know I’m not the only one who is grateful for City College and the invaluable education it has provided me. Please help us save City College for all of us now and those to come!"

“My name is Jennifer, and I am one of the many students at City College of San Francisco who desperately need to take Math 860. I am writing to let you know that there is a great demand for the class, and many students, including myself, would be very grateful if another section or two could be opened up.

I was among the 50 or so students who, last night, were stuffing themselves in to Dr. Grace Chen’s classroom, hoping to get a coveted add sticker. It was truly a crazy ridiculous scene, which Dr. Chen handled with grace (no pun intended) and humor. Unfortunately there is just not enough space, and although she made it clear that she wished she could take us all, the workload for her would be huge and overwhelming.

We all understand the recent budget cuts; many of us are feeling the economic pinch in our personal lives too. But that is precisely the reason why more sections of these popular, mandatory classes need to be opened up. There is no shortage of students willing to pay and study hard.

Please consider opening another section of math 860 if it is within your power, or if not, please take this plea to the proper person. I know I speak for hundreds of students when I say that there is a need for more classes."

Thank you for your time,
Jennifer
